Long Term Projects throughout the Unit:

Anecdotal Scrapbook-
America is called "The Melting Pot" because many different cultures have shaped the way we are today. Because of this, it's easy to overlook the small things in life that come from another culture. Throughout the unit, use a composition book to make journal entries and save pieces of information you collect along the way based on your daily life. For example, do you play soccer? Well, soccer is a Spanish sport!

E-Pal- We will be using this service to connect with classrooms in another country! E-Pals is the largest global community of connected classrooms. You can choose between Spanish-speaking countries or China and create a virtual pen-pal relationship.

Podcasts- Use podcasts in Chinese or Spanish to add to what we are learning in the classroom. Many podcasts can be found that relate directly to the lessons we are going over in class.
